Everest Three Pass is the ultimate trekking experience which is little longer and more challenging as we have to cross three high passes. These trails are not standard Everest trail but views are worth hard trekking. Three pass includes Renjo La (5,388m), Chola La (5,380m) and Kongma La (5,535m). You will also trek three walking peaks; Gokyo Ri (5,483m), Kala Patthar (5,545m) and Chukkung Ri (5,550m). The whole trek is challenging and offers you amazing vistas of world’s highest mountain giants.

The journey of three passes begins from Kathmandu followed up by flight to Lukla. From here we will be trekking to Namchee Bazaar then head west to Thame toward remote Nangpa Valley which is close to Tibet border. Our first pass is Renjo La pass; it is tough but stunning view of Mount Everest and Cho Oyu helps you to make trek more enjoyable. Then comes the Gokyo Lake where you can have rest day and then climb to Gokyo Ri. Continuing to Ngozsumpa Glacier and we arrive our second Pass, the Cho La. This pass is frequently icy.

After enough of hustling we give our trek continuity and reach Kala Pathhar then from there we descend to Lobuche. From here we trek to Kongma La and continue to Chukkung Ri. The villages here are very lovely with views of Ama Dablam, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu and Cho Oyu. After completion of circuit we return back to Lukla and we can see Sherpa villages and monasteries.
